I remember the Tea Party protests of of 2009-2010 and two things come to mind.  First, those protests were not violent.  Second they cleaned up after themselves. The current protests against President-elect Donald Trump have been violent and left a big mess behind.  Hell, the Occupy protests of 2009 also left a big mess that others, at taxpayer expense, had to clean up.

I sit here and watch the riots in Portland, Oregon it occurs to me that had those been Libertarian, Republican or a Religious organization that had behaved that way then the police would have been called in much sooner to arrest them.  It is this obvious double standard that annoys me so much.

Ha ha. The police just shoot the blacks with impunity and ask questions later.

Now that Trump is in office, you'll have your repression. He promised you guys that.
